Christmas party fish and chips in Crofton Park, cooked to order
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and service timed so people are not outside for long. We’re frequently asked to cater family Christmas get-togethers and school and PTA Christmas fairs, serving sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
In Crofton Park, festive bookings tend to be at workplaces and homes. Tell us about lighting and access. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- December Fridays go first: book early
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
Festive lights by the van look great.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A short walk from the party
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
As a London location, Crofton Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Cod and chips

How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. December in Crofton Park means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
